2.利用句中的反义或对比词推导:
? 此种方法是通过句中的转折词、或反义词、或对比词来确定选项。 ? Why should anyone want to read of books by great authors when t he real pleasure comes from reading the originals? (CET6 1997年6月)
? A) themes B) insights C) digests D) leaflets
? ??全句意为"既然真正的乐趣来自于阅读原著,怎么会有人想读名著摘录呢"。根据题意 ,这里originals(原著)与所填词意思相对,应当有"文摘,摘录"的意思。显然,只有C)项为正确选择。
又如:
? I think she hurt my feelings rather than by accident as she cla imed. (CET6 1997年1月)
? A) virtually B) deliberately?
? C) literally D) appropriately
? ??全句意为"我想她是故意伤害了我,而不是她说的那样无意的"。rather than表明了by accident与空格处意思相对。by accident的意思是"偶然地,不经意地",与此相对的 应当是deliberately,"故意地"。正确选项为B)。
